MARK TWAIN QUOTES ABOUT LIFE
“Anger is an acid that can
do more harm to the vessel
in which it is stored than to
anything on which it is poured.”
“The human race has only one really
effective weapon and that is laughter.”
“When I was a boy of 14, my father was so ignorant
I could hardly stand to have the old man around.
But when I got to be 21, I was astonished at how
much the old man had learned in 7 years.”
“Eat a live frog first thing in the morning
and nothing worse will happen
to you the rest of the day.”
“Never argue with a fool, onlookers may
not be able to tell the difference.”
“When I was younger, I could remember anything,
whether it had happened or not; but my faculties
are decaying now and soon I shall be so I cannot
remember any but the things that never happened.
It is sad to go to pieces like this but we all have to do it.”
“Noise proves nothing. Often a hen who has laid
an egg cackles as if she had laid an asteroid.”
“Do something everyday that you don’t want to do;
this is the golden rule for acquiring the
habit of doing your duty without pain.”
“Honesty: The best of all the lost arts.”
“Be careful about reading health
books. You may die of a misprint.”
“Loyalty to country ALWAYS. Loyalty
to government, when it deserves it.”
“Buy land, they’re not making it anymore.”
“A person with a new idea is a
crank until the idea succeeds.”
“The lack of money is the root of all evil.”
“Giving up smoking is the
easiest thing in the world.
I know because I’ve done it thousands of times.”
When your friends begin to
flatter you on how young you look,
it’s a sure sign you’re getting old.
